Chapter 20 Moonlight
Chapter 20 Moonlight
The flying boat flew at high speed in the sky.
Xu Chen sat cross-legged on the edge of the flying boat, looking down at the earth from a high altitude.
Thousands of feet high mountains and endless rivers stretching for thousands of miles.
From time to time in the distance, lights of various colors streaked across the sky.
"My name is Luo Mao, and I have been living here for two and a half years."
The disciple who just said he was practicing the Twelve Styles of the Holy Ape came to Xu Chen's side.
"Xu Chen, I have been in the sect for two years, and my senior brother came here to laugh at me." Xu Chen said lightly.
"No, I don't mean that at all."
"Junior brother, to be honest with you, I also came in through the back door. I think we should have a common goal, so I want to discuss it with you." Luo Mao looked around and said in a low voice.
"What do you mean by common goal, Brother Luo?" Xu Chen asked knowingly.
"Of course I'm going to find a Taoist partner from another race. My father has been asking me to have more descendants for the Luo family since I was a child. For this purpose, he even went through the back door to enter the Daxi Sect." Luo Mao raised his eyebrows and said.
"Isn't that right? According to Senior Brother Luo's strength and talent, it is not easy for him to join the Daxi Sect."
"I'm from Shenmu Prefecture next door. Admission to Daxi Sect requires top-notch qualifications, and I don't meet the standards."
"Okay." Xu Chen nodded.
"I wonder if Senior Brother Luo has gained anything in these years. Is he interested in the Spirit Flower Clan or the Three-Colored Fox Clan?"
"I like the Spirit Flower Clan. They are full of floral fragrance, holy, elegant and beautiful, but they are hard to pursue."
"The Three-Colored Fox Tribe seems to have more hope, but the bride price they ask for is too high, and I am a little unwilling to accept it."
"So I would like to ask my junior brother if he has any good ideas?" Luo Mao looked at Xu Chen with hopeful eyes.
"Brother, I'm only 14 years old this year. I'm not in a hurry, so I just practice and don't think about anything else."
Although he has been busy practicing in Daxi Sect in the past two years, he has some knowledge of the situation within the sect.
Although it is feasible to form a Taoist partner with a foreign race, it is definitely not as simple as imagined.
"At 14, you are at the age of establishing yourself, so you should also consider this aspect."
"Junior brother, let's add each other's contact information and chat more in the future."
Luo Mao took out his disciple token, and Xu Chen also took out his disciple token. When the two disciple tokens were touched together, their contact information was added.
"Brother, I'd like to ask, after practicing the Twelve Styles of the Holy Ape to the level of unity of form and meaning, how much strength of a tiger can one have?" Xu Chen asked curiously.
The Human Emperor Avenue Building only has the Qi and Blood Foundation Building Methods of the Six and Nine Styles of the Holy Ape. To get higher levels, one needs to reach a certain level of qualifications and go to the Human Emperor Avenue Building in the capital of Leizhou to purchase them.
"The power of one dragon and six tigers, but it's too difficult to practice. The best I can do is reach the Tongyi level before I have to practice the technique."
At this point, Luo Mao couldn't help but sigh.
"This is the fucking gap!" Xu Chen couldn't help but shout in his heart.
"I don't have the aptitude, so I'm slow in practicing any technique."
"Junior brother, do you know?"
"The genius our Grand Elder accepted a year ago, took only one year to master the Sixteen Forms of the Holy Ape to the level of unity of form and meaning. He has the power of two dragons and one tiger, and he's only 7 years old!"
“When you learn some top-level Qi and blood foundation-building methods in the future, we probably won’t be able to withstand even a glance from you.” Luo Mao said leisurely as he looked at the scenery below the flying boat.
“Just be yourself.”
Five hours later, the flying boat stopped at a mountain range covered in dense forest.
"There are unintelligent beasts in the mountains. The beasts in this area are weaker now."
"Xu Chen, you are in charge of this area."
The flying boat landed five feet off the ground.
"Okay, senior brother."
Xu Chen jumped directly off the flying boat and watched it disappear into the horizon.
"It's been two years, and I finally get to go out of the sect."
Looking around, there were only dense forests of giant trees, and the ground underfoot was extremely soft, not suitable for traveling.
"It's quite inconvenient to find the Stone Spirit in this place." Xu Chen said as he climbed up a tree directly, and finally began to jump on different trees, searching for clues of the Stone Spirit.
"The mission deadline is half a month. I don't know if we can find it."
Standing on a thick tree branch, Xu Chen looked into the distance.
"It's just a matter of luck."
Xu Chen suddenly waved his hand back and grabbed a giant snake as thick as his wrist by its seven inches. Then he took out a spiritual disciple's iron sword from his storage bag and directly cut off the snake's head.
"This snake is probably quite old. I'll take it back and make soup with it." Xu Chen put the other half into the storage bag.
He felt that there was a high probability that this mission would not be completed. Since he was out, he had to gain something.
In this dense forest, Xu Chen searched carefully for three days according to the map, but he did not find any clues about the stone spirit. However, he found several spiritual herbs and fruits.
At night, the moon is bright in the sky.
Xu Chen was on the top of a mountain, checking the harvest of the past three days in the moonlight.
"50-year-old red fruit, 80-year-old ginseng, three mature moon spirit grasses, and baby's breath."
"These are worth about 30 spirit coins. At this rate, I can get more than spirit coins by the time I leave."
Putting these spiritual herbs and fruits into the storage bag, Xu Chen used the moonlight to check the situation below the mountain.
"In three days, we found a clue that looked like a stone spirit, but it turned out to be fake."
At this moment, Xu Chen vaguely discovered that there seemed to be moonlight condensing somewhere at the foot of the mountain.
As the moonlight condensed, it turned into strands of moonlight and gathered somewhere at the foot of the mountain.
Xu Chen, who was sitting on the top of the mountain, saw this scene and took out his disciple token.
"Brother Liu, I found that the power of moonlight is being condensed and absorbed somewhere, and moonlight is appearing."
Xu Chen sent the message and his location.
No matter whether it is a stone spirit or an intelligent beast that absorbs the moonlight, they are beings that he cannot afford to offend.
"wait for me."
The disciple token vibrated slightly, and Xu Chen received the message.
In less than an incense stick of time, a hand suddenly patted Xu Chen's shoulder.
Just as Xu Chen was about to react, Liu Guang's voice rang out.
"it's me."
"It turned out to be my senior brother. He scared me." Xu Chen was a little scared.
"Brother, the area that absorbed the moonlight just now is right there."
Xu Chen pointed to the place where the moonlight had just gathered.
"I'll go take a look. If it's really a stone spirit, you'll get the credit."
Liu Guang's figure turned into a breeze and disappeared.
Xu Chen sat quietly waiting for the result.
"According to my plan, I don't know how old I will be to enter the Treasure Body Realm. There are so many skills, spells and magical powers, I don't know which one to practice."
Just as he was daydreaming, the sound of fierce fighting broke out in the distance at the foot of the mountain.
Xu Chen looked intently and saw a ten-foot-tall giant beast made of rock fighting with a small figure.
"Damn, could that be a stone spirit?"
Standing up, Xu Chen ran quickly down the mountain.
Soon they arrived at the edge of the battlefield.
"Shi Ling, you are now intelligent and I believe you understand your current situation."
"If you submit to the Daxi Sect, you still have a chance to survive. If you don't, I can only beat you back to your original form."
